top 10 of 2010

So all the cool kids are doing it , so I thought it would be blog worthy to do it as well.

My favorite layouts I have made in the year 2010.

Above my all time favorite collection from Cosmo Cricket featured in the layout

"Schutt Apple Farm".  I loved the papers from Earth Love so much, I bought the

collection at 2peas then scooped up a stack when I saw it at Michaels.

Michaels, please carry cosmo cricket again? 

 Made this for a class I took of Shimelle's.  Paper strip love and of course my pip!

 I was getting friendly with my cricket here.  I had a period of a month where I used it for every layout.  Must try that again.  It was kinda fun, but now I have a slice,so.....

 Simple love for the Anna Griffin papers.  They are busy papers, but when it works, I want to use Anna on all my layouts.  Until it doesn't work, which happens too often...

 I posted this layout only on  my blog and in the gallery for Shimelle's class "Something for almost Nothing".  Then before I could post it anywhere else I saw it posted on 2peas.  Not my layout, but a complete scraplift.

I made it for a prompt from Shimelle's class to use a challenge prompt from 2peas to inspire my layout.  I made this, posted it Shimelle's gallery and while reading the message board, saw that several ladies were also using the prompt to enter the 2peas challenge. I thought I should as well.  So there I went and lo and behold, a complete scraplift of my layout was already present.  I called Craig into the room showed him the lift, we laughed, and then promptly forgot about it.

 I liked this one as well.

I used those lovely OA thrift store papers.

 I ADORE these photos!

There is something so fun and just so our life about them!

My sister and my girl Nora laughing it up!

That's the good life...

 More paper strip love, I love bits and pieces and I'm wild about this photo still.  Love a snoopy smile!

 This layout I whipped up the morning Nora went off to school.  The photo was taken, printed, and scrapped to go to school for show and tell.  It came home a wrinkled mess.  Yes, I was a little....disappointed, but it was a success for Nora and that's what mattered!

My blossoming love for the 8 1/2 x 11 photo!

Collage my photos and print it out!

Makes my two pagers so fast and effortless.
